After you have the input and output shafts secured you can slide in the clustergear shaft by pushing the dowel out with it. I'm pretty sure about the dowel size but either way a Model A shaft worked perfect in my 49 passenger car trans. Good luck. I've done my overdrive a few times and still get frustrated.

Thanks Frank, I as posting while you where. That is exactly my issue. I guess I'll just keep plugging away at it..
